An educational fair for more than 200 Cambodian Children's Fund children was held on Saturday 28 April at NISC.
Four NISC clubs, namely The Change, STEAM, Paws Crossed and Marble Media collaborated to make this event possible.
Aside from the fun and educational activities prepared, there were also free eye examinations for the CCF children, performed by professional ophthalmologists who volunteered.
It was a day full of fun and laughter.
Sirina, President of The Change club, mentioned that she could not believe how privileged she was to see the CCF children enjoying the space and activities the club had organised.
We hope to provide more opportunities like this for this for underprivileged children in the future.

Academic excellence is at the forefront of education, and whilst our duty as teachers is to foster this, we also have the responsibility to open students’ eyes to the wider world and their social responsibility within it.
Service- learning, or service as action, combines in school learning with supporting local communities, encouraging students to independently research local issues and take action to support those in need.
In the Primary Years Programme (PYP), including at Northbridge International School Cambodia, 'action' is considered to be both an application of learning and an opportunity for students to engage in a form of contribution or service.
Helping others has always been at the heart of the International Baccalaureate curriculum, giving Northbridge International School Cambodia students the opportunity to engage with the world around them and develop both empathy and the organizational skills necessary to make a change in their world.
